Mertsan Load Bearing Service Wheel Polyamide Swivel with Brake Type 150x45 mm

Mertsan Heavy Duty Swivel Polyamide Caster with Brake Type 150x45 mm

 

Full Control, Maneuverability, and Superior Chemical Resistance for the Heaviest Loads

The Mertsan Heavy Duty Swivel Polyamide Caster with Brake Type 150x45 mm is a high-performance and durable caster solution designed for moving very heavy loads in industrial environments and securely stabilizing them. Thanks to the hardness of polyamide (Nylon) material, it offers one of the highest load capacities and lowest rolling resistance compared to its rubber counterparts. Its 150 mm diameter allows it to easily overcome obstacles on the ground, while its 45 mm width distributes the load evenly. With a swivel (360°) bracket and an integrated total brake system, it provides flexible and strong maneuverability and absolute stabilization control even for heavy load transport vehicles in tight spaces.

 

Product Features and Material Details

This caster is designed for high load capacity, maneuvering flexibility, and durability in challenging environments.

Feature Name	Detailed Description
Wheel Diameter	150 mm (Ideal for overcoming high obstacles and smooth movement under heavy loads)
Wheel Width	45 mm (Stability and wide load distribution under heavy loads)
Wheel Material	Polyamide (PA, Nylon): Very hard, high-strength and abrasion-resistant thermoplastic. Excellent resistance to oil, acid, solvent, and moisture. Among the casters with the lowest rolling resistance.
Housing Type	Swivel and Braked: 360-degree free steering and full stabilization security with a total brake mechanism that locks both the wheel and the bracket.
Housing Material	Pressed Steel (Zinc-Plated Steel): Galvanized coating resistant to heavy loads, rust, and corrosion.
Bearing Type	Typically Roller Bearing or Ball Bearing construction; this allows even the heaviest loads to move easily with minimal friction.
Nominal Load Capacity	Very high compared to rubber and other thermoplastic counterparts; typically has a load capacity between 200 and 250.

 

Application Areas and Industries

Polyamide swivel casters with brakes are critical in the most demanding industrial applications where high load carrying, chemical resistance, hygiene, and the need for continuous maneuverability combined with absolute stabilization are paramount:

Heavy Industrial Production: Mobile workstations for large molds, engine blocks, heavy machine parts. (Brakes prevent slipping while the machine is running).

Chemical and Petrochemical Industry: Transport and mixing equipment in production and storage areas where chemicals, acids, and solvents are present.

Food Processing and Cold Storage: Transport systems requiring high hygiene standards and low-temperature resistance.

Automotive and Metal Industry: Mobile carriers for heavy chassis parts, welding, and assembly units.

Heavy Duty Storage: Heavy warehouse carts that move in narrow aisles and need to be stabilized during loading/unloading.

 

User Information and Benefits

This caster is designed for users seeking maximum efficiency, safety, and operational ease when transporting heavy loads:

Maximum Secure Stabilization: The total brake locks the wheel and the bracket, completely and safely preventing the load from moving on sloped surfaces or during vibrating operations.

Superior Maneuverability: The swivel design allows even large and cumbersome loads to be directed 360 degrees effortlessly in tight spaces and along production lines.

Maximum Energy Efficiency: The very low rolling resistance of polyamide enables the operator to move even the heaviest loads with minimum pushing force, reducing fatigue.

Harsh Environment Resistance: Superior resistance to oil, moisture, and most chemicals extends the caster's lifespan and reduces maintenance costs.

High Load Capacity: The ability to carry extremely high loads relative to its size increases operational load limits and guarantees the reliability of the transport system.
